Developer Account (CLI)

mrbd-cli can sign in to your MRBD developer account and manage the same auth apps that appear in the developer portal. This lets you register and edit apps from your terminal or scripts instead of the web UI.

The CLI ships with npm create mrbd-app@latest, or run it directly with npx mrbd-cli.

Sign in

npx mrbd-cli login

login prompts for your developer email, sends a 6-digit code to that address, and asks you to enter it. On success it stores your session under ~/.mrbd/credentials.json (file mode 600) and refreshes it automatically as you run other commands.

npx mrbd-cli login --email you@example.com   # skip the email prompt
npx mrbd-cli whoami                           # show the signed-in developer
npx mrbd-cli logout                           # clear the local session

Manage auth apps

An auth app is the registered application that @mrbd/auth uses for sign-in. Each app has an appId in reverse-domain notation and an allow-list of origins permitted to start auth flows. You can only see and edit apps you own.

List and inspect

npx mrbd-cli apps list
npx mrbd-cli apps get com.example.my-app

Create

A privacy policy is required — either link your own or let MRBD generate one.

npx mrbd-cli apps create \
  --app-id com.example.my-app \
  --name "My App" \
  --origin https://my-app.example.com \
  --privacy-policy-url https://my-app.example.com/privacy

To use MRBD-generated legal documents instead of your own URLs, pass --generate-privacy (and optionally --generate-terms) along with publisher details:

npx mrbd-cli apps create \
  --app-id com.example.my-app \
  --name "My App" \
  --origin https://my-app.example.com \
  --generate-privacy \
  --publisher-name "Example, Inc." \
  --legal-email legal@example.com

Add --origin more than once to allow multiple origins, and --env <development|preview|production> to set the environment (defaults to development).

Update

apps update changes only the fields you pass; everything else is left as-is.

npx mrbd-cli apps update com.example.my-app --status disabled
npx mrbd-cli apps update com.example.my-app \
  --origin https://a.example.com \
  --origin https://b.example.com

--status accepts active, disabled, or revoked. The appId cannot be changed after creation.

Run npx mrbd-cli apps <command> --help for the full option list.

Pointing at another instance

By default the CLI targets the standard MRBD developer instance. Override it with environment variables when working against a self-hosted or local stack:

export MRBD_SUPABASE_URL="https://your-instance.example.com"
export MRBD_SUPABASE_PUBLISHABLE_KEY="sb_publishable_..."

The publishable key is a public client identifier. Access is enforced server-side, so the CLI can only ever read or modify apps owned by the signed-in account.
